    I bought my car almost 11 years ago. I know absolutely nothing about cars. Ultimately, I was just looking for something reliable. Last week I hit 375,000 miles. Hoping to make it to 400,000 and beyond…

      The Late Brake Show has done a video walkaround of the Morgan Super 3, in the off chance you're obsessing over them like me.

        Well, c’mon. Tell us what it is. Reliable trumps style for cars in my book.

          hey @Bfd70 i drive a volvo xc90. I’ve done the routine maintenance on the vehicle, at the recommended mileage intervals. Thankfully, no major issues along the way. Just the normal wear ‘n tear.  ‘Knock on wood’ I don’t have any in the future but I probably just jinxed it.

              @Giles:

              Recently changed cars.  We got a Diesel Hybrid Merc E class estate. Thing goes like shit of a shovel.

              Nice, I was looking at a very similar car this week, was a C class though. I'm yet to pull the trigger though as I would really like the equivalent Jag!

                  Sold my AMG for a Lexus NX 450h+ (PHEV) very lucky to get it. Two-year wait here.

                  Here it is parked beside my FJ.

                    Neither actual nor dream, but very cool. The first Subie sold in the states, rear-motorcycle-engined, and to my eye a charming cross between a Mini and a Beetle.

                      Such a beautiful specimen I had to share.

                        Talking about cardiologist…Damn that’s nice.  However, I show that to Laura and I’ll need a proctologist to remove her foot from me.  😃

                            Two things:  One I can not ever afford that car and two, that’s cool as hell @Giles

                                    The new Batmobile has been testing at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

                                    OK, it's the McMurtry Speirling, an electric car with additional downforce provided by a fan. It's just cut two seconds off the record for the hill climb at Goodwood.

                                      Purchased one of my dream cars last week: 2022 4Runner 4wd. It's Army Green and absolutely spectacular.

                                      Weird dream car I guess but a neighbor of mine had one when I was growing up and I always thought the rear window glass being retractable was so very cool. In fact, his was green as well. Kinda cool coincidence I suppose.
